With her sensitive version, accompanied by herself on the guitar and a fellow musician on the piano, Flavie Léa gains completely new facets from the Latino hit, even switching between Spanish and French in the verses.

Fortunately, “Sing It Your Way” is a music and not a dating show. Otherwise Loco Escrito would have fallen in love with the charming Flavie Léa in the second episode.
With its Colombian roots and lively Latino pop, Loco Escrito from Zurich is a successful example of the high multicultural factor in Switzerland. Was that why the makers of “Sing It Your Way” assigned him musicians from three parts of Switzerland?
In any case, the Loco Escrito hit “Punto” is covered three times in the second episode of the Blue music show, geographically very differently – once by the indie band Rooftop Heroes from Romanshorn, once by the singer / songwriter duo Make Plain from Ticino once by singer Flavie Léa from Friborg.

Above all, the Chanteuse from the French-speaking part of Switzerland, who otherwise operates from London, wins the game. With her sensitive version of “Punto”, accompanied by herself on the guitar and a fellow musician on the piano, she gains completely new facets from the Latino hit, even switching back and forth between Spanish and French in the verses.
“Otherwise we have a problem here”
In any case, the original interpreter of the hit is completely enthusiastic, looks at first speechless and motionless, before he spontaneously starts a dance behind the mixer in the power play studio together with presenter Anthony.
The French charm and the elegance of the French language do not fail to have an impact on the Zürcher. “J’adore le français”, he admires the French language, Loco Escrito enthuses about the singer – and proves that he was anything but upset when it came to foreign languages. That he would later say “proche” (near) instead of “propre” (clean)? As a gift, that was mainly the result of his nervousness.
In fact, the attractive singer from the French-speaking part of Switzerland turns the head of the Swiss-German rapper. “I thought this was a show about music, not to fall in love,” says Loco with a smile. “Because if you sing for me like that, it’s dangerous.” At the end she sang “mon amour” in his direction; then he has to get up and go – “otherwise we have a problem here”.

Victory despite beauty
The attractive appearance of Flavie Léa does not only have advantages, as Loco Escrito explains. Experts are generally more critical of the vocal qualities of a good-looking singer, because they are suspected of putting more emphasis on their looks than on their voice.
Beauty or not, for Flavie Léa it is still enough to win and thus the chance of 10,000 francs in prize money in the final. Although Loco Escrito is absolutely enthusiastic about all three cover versions (“the decision was really mega-mega-mega difficult for me”), in the end he chose the charming Friborg woman. Why? “She just flashed me full from the start.” You saw Loco. Has been seen.
In the second episode, the newcomer bands cover Loco Escrito’s hit “Punto”. Who sings in the original Spanish language? And who convinces Loco Escrito the most and moves into the final? The complete show to watch.
